After expanding to a 12-team field in 2024, the CFP now spans four rounds starting in December and concluding with the national championship game in mid-January. Each season, the national championship is hosted in a different city on Championship Monday. In 2026, the College Football Playoff National Championship game will be played on January 19 at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida.
